Surely we are slightly in a dream thinking an F1 pies gets us pick 15
When a few weeks ago an F1 and F2 Blues was required for pick 14
Why would suns trade away an F1 for an F2. Pick 31 just gets eaten up, i dont think they have an issue for points
The issues are there and it is not way off the mark as far as that goes but it is just another article written based on the presumption that we should be playing finals and pushing too 4 when we really are not that side.

The backline has quality names – Ben McKay, Zach Reid, Jordan Ridley, Mason Redman, third tall JaydenLaverde.
Peter Wright found himself out the outer in 2024. Picture: Michael Klein
And yet ….
Apart from Kyle Langford (and the departed Stringer) no...
Sliding doors moment was that JaydenLaverde run down tackle against the Dons which, if adjudicated in the same way as the sling tackle on Young vs GWS, might have resulted in a shot on goal and consequently a spot in the eight, but alas there went our season and Emmett’s time in purple along...
2014 was a very interesting draft. Outside of De Goey and Petracca no absolute elite players. Heeney, Steele and Moore father son / academy players but otherwise a handful of good but not great options.
At Pick #7 would we have looked at Peter Wright, Liam Duggan, Corey Ellis, Nakia Cockatoo...

MSD/Rookie gets eaten up by Lord.
Out: 6 x Senior, 2 x Rookie, 1 x Cat-B
In: 7 x Senior, 1 x Rookie (Lord), 1 x Cat-B (Duffy) plus Boyd must be upgraded. So you need to find a way to move 2 senior players to the rookie list.

I saw JaydenLaverde at my gym yesterday.
What is interesting is the hangar is 4km down the road and he was not there.
My guess is he is looking to leave.
Looking at our contract situation and it looks like 2025 will be the final seasons for Shiel, Laverde, Goldstein and Stringer (assuming Jake and Jayden aren’t traded). That will clear quite a bit of cap space.
Also big years for Jones and Hobbs who come ooc. Lual and ADJ potential delisting...
So what you're saying is 10 top 30 draft picks this year, and martin, grimes, baker, graham, bolton, lynch, money is banked in 2025 and replaced end of 2025 with 6 from the above list. Dynasty 2026 to2028.
I have been hoping we might have a crack at Braeden Campbell but haven't heard anything. He's what we need
Travaglia I saw for our reserves and was very impressive. Good skills and a calm head off HB
Berry I would love. He is definitely what we need
I still believe our biggest improvement will...

I like Cowan and I think he will be a very good intercepting half back flanker for us - but I’m not sure that he’s good enough below the knees to go in the middle and be an extracting mid.
Think we might be another year off really being a big player for FA
Just due to how it works all the “good” ones tend to be a little bit old for us right now until we have a better idea of what our core will be building around has
